She was a valuable asset for the Governance Committee, especially in 2016, when B\u00e2tirente was undergoing a change in its governance structure, which helped consolidate and expand the central place of groups within the corporation. I\u2019m confident that Ms. Jacques will ensure a seamless transition as she takes over, and we\u2019re thrilled with her appointment.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.batirente.com\/en\/board-and-committees\/\">Kevin Gagnon<\/a> was appointed group representative to replace Benoit Th\u00e9or\u00eat of the <em>Syndicat des travailleurs de C\u00e2bles d\u2019acier de Pointe-Claire<\/em> <em>(CSN)<\/em> union, who was a board member since June 2014.
